Abstract: The handrail reentry guard housing (14) on a moving walkway or an escalator is provided with a retrofittable shield which is attached to the underside of the guard housing, and which fills the space between the moving handrail and the guard housing. The shield (20) is formed from complementary halves (20) which are made from formed plastic sheets. The shield halves are generally trough-shaped and somewhat flexible so as not to form a rigid counterpart to the moving handrail. Hook and loop components (22,23,34,36) are secured to the guard housing and to the shield halves to allow for retrofit securement of the shield to the guard housing.

Abstract: A variable rate fertilizer spreading apparatus for spreading a precise amount of multiple types of fertilizers upon a field based upon a location in the field. The system comprises a controller accessing a soil map indicating the type of soil for each portion of the field, several fertilizer maps storing the desired fertilizer level of each of the fertilizers stored in product bins on the tractor, and several status maps each indicating the current fertilizer level at various locations of the field to be fertilized. By accessing the speed of the tractor via a speed indicator, and ascertaining the location of the tractor in the field via a position locator, such as an LORAN or GPS system, an expert system determines the dispensing rate of each of the fertilizers based on the various maps and the position and speed indicators such that the proper dispense rate of the fertilizers from bins is set to attain the desired level of fertilizers. The expert system accesses standard and proprietary data tables and processes complex calculations taking into account the interaction effects of multiple fertilizers being dispensed upon a particular type of soil, as ascertained from the soil map. Thus, each portion of a field can be characterized and fertilized such that the resulting level of each of the fertilizers matches the fertilizer maps after spreading fertilizer, where no predetermined path of vehicle is necessary. The current fertilizer level map is updated after a dispensing pass to provide a real-time record.

Abstract: In a continuous process for drying a sludge composed of combustible material and water, the wet sludge is first mixed with a proportion of material which has been dried in the process and is then fed into a hot gas stream from a burner. The hot gas stream carries the mixture along and dries it, and a proportion is tapped off and mixed with the incoming wet sludge. A part of the remainder is fed, with supplementary fuel if necessary to the burner to create the hot gas stream. The rate of fuel supply is varied in dependence on a temperature of the hot gas stream when it exhausts from the mixture drying operation.

Abstract: A touch trigger probe incorporates piezoelectric sensors (50), whose outputs are processed by an interface circuit. The interface circuit discriminates between signals generated from the piezoelectric sensors (50) as a result of machine vibration and those generated as a result of a genuine measurement event, by the use of a timing circuit (90). The timing circuit (90) compares the time intervals (t₁-t₂) ; (t₂-t₃) between attainment of first (l₁) and second (l₂), and second (l₂) and third (l₃) output signal levels from the sensor (50), and upon the basis of this comparison validates (or rejects) measurements made with the probe. Additionally, the interface determines whether measurements made with the probe are taken upon the basis of outputs generated by the sensors (50) due to a shock wave in the stylus (24) of the probe, or as a result of strain in the stylus (24); as an alternative, measurements may be made only on the basis of strain.

Abstract: The invention applies to continuous casting of steel in a mould with cooled walls, which is driven in oscillatory movement with travel h and frequency f, for producing a product leaving the mould at a casting speed Vc, the metal being topped with a lubricant forming liquid slag, the downward speed of the ingot mould being greater than the casting speed Vc during a crust-forming time tN. According to the invention, without altering the nature of the lubricant, it is possible to adjust the casting speed Vc over a wide range in order to adapt to specified casting conditions, by acting in combination on the travel and on the frequency of the oscillations as a function of the chosen casting speed, so that, whatever the casting speed Vc, the rate Q of consumption of the lubricant and the crust-forming time tN are each held at a substantially constant optimum value over the entire adjustment range of the speed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A cathode material made of anhydrous ferric sulfate with a hexagonal crystal structure is presented for use in a secondary battery which generates a stable open-circuit-voltage of about 3.6 volts and offers a recharge cycling capacity of over 100 times. The cathode material is obtained by heating hydrous iron sulfate material in a temperature range between 250 and 600 °C to remove the water of crystallization. The secondary battery made with this cathode material provides a long-service life and a stable output voltage economically, because the starting material, iron sulfate, is abundantly available at relatively low cost.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of treatment of programmed cell death (apoptosis) through the use of the HSV-1 gene gamma134.5 or the product of its expression, ICP34.5. The gene and its expression have been demonstrated to be required for HSV-1 neurovirulence, and in particular, to act as an inhibitor of neuronal programmed cell death which allows for viral replication. Use of the gene therapy, or the protein itself, can be expected to result in inhibition of programmed cell death in various neurodegenerative diseases. This invention also relates to novel vectors for gene therapy, including modified herpes virus. Methods are presented for conducting assays for substances capable of mimicing, potentiating or inhibiting the expression of gamma134.5 or the activity of ICP34.5. Also, methods are disclosed for the treatment of tumorogenic diseases, including cancer, and for treatment of herpes and other viral infections using inhibitors of gamma134.5 expression or ICP34.5 activity.

Abstract: Access method to the address characteristics of communicating partners with a first address field when sending data packets. In the invention, a method is described with which address characteristics, in particular those of data packets, can be accessed quickly. The method exploits the fact that service features of the communications link are stored in the form of addresses in tables which need to be searched in succession. A large address field from which only a sub-set of addresses is used is compressed into an address field which is the same size as the sub-set of used addresses. Shortened addresses are thus obtained. Since a plurality of tables need to be searched for each address entry, a second stage of the method according to the invention comprises jumping from the compressed address field via offsets to different tables which need to be checked. The communications load for address transfer is reduced by the method according to the invention and a shorter computing time compared with hash addressing is achieved. <IMAGE>
